GIGABYTE on Friday presented the GIGABYTE BRIX, a compact PC, combining a small and sleek form factor chassis design with a choice of Intel Core processors, SSD storage, integrated Wi-Fi, USB 3.0 plus dual digital display outputs.
The BRIX from GIGABYTE is an ultra compact (29.9 x 107.6 x 114.4 mm) DIY
PC kit available with a broad choice of processors covering a range of
performance and price points. It has been designed for use as a compact
HTPC build, as a standard desktop in the home or office, or in commercial
applications such as digital signage.
GIGABYTE designed the BRIX to be smaller and lighter than currently
available products, with a glass surface mounted on an anthracite
aluminum frame. The BRIX comes complete with a GIGABYTE compact form
factor motherboard, Wi-Fi module, VESA mounting bracket and power
adapter, requiring only an mSATA SSD, SO-DIMM memory and OS.
The BRIX is available with a choice of four 3rd Generation Intel
processors.
